If you’ve been holding out for a discount before picking up a new Apple Watch, iPad, MacBook, or set of AirPods, Amazon’s October Prime Day sale is a great time to buy. While we will inevitably see more discounts pop up as we approach Black Friday, the retail giant’s latest sale has dropped a few Apple gadgets down to the lowest price we’ve tracked. To make things quick and easy, we’ve sifted through the various deals and rounded up the best Apple offers below. We will update this post as new offers arise. Before diving in, though, remember that you’ll need to be a Prime subscriber to access some offers in the Prime Big Deal Days sale (as it’s officially called).
Best Prime Day Apple Deals
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd gen) for $169 ($80 off MSRP): This is the lowest price we’ve seen for Apple’s noise-canceling wireless earbuds, which we consider the best choice for iOS users.
Apple AirPods Max for $395 ($154 off): This matches the all-time low for Apple’s over-ear noise-cancelers, but only applies to the older Lightning-based model, not the newer revision with USB-C. However, the old model still offers clean sound and top-notch ANC.
Apple Watch SE (2nd gen, GPS) for $170 ($79 off): While it’s an older model, the entry-level Apple Watch remains a solid choice for first-time smartwatch buyers, particularly for those who can forgo the larger always-on display and more advanced health features of the pricier Series 10.
Apple Watch SE (2nd gen, GPS + Cellular) for $220 ($79 off): For those needing more than Wi-Fi, both the 40mm and 44mm versions of the Apple Watch SE with cellular support are now available at reduced prices of $220 and $240, respectively.
Apple MacBook Air M2 (13-inch) for $749 ($250 off): Although it’s now a generation old, the M2 MacBook Air provides many of the same benefits as the latest model, making this discount significant.
Apple iPad (9th gen) for $199 ($130 off): Despite being discontinued, this price is excellent for a device that’s still capable of handling casual media consumption.
Apple Pencil Pro for $98 ($31 off): This stylish accessory is available at a record low, perfect for users of the latest iPad Airs or iPad Pros.
Apple MagSafe Charger (25W) for $33 ($6 off): While not a significant discount, this is the lowest price we’ve seen for the company’s newest MagSafe charger.
